Eligibility
Recruits 6 paediatric patients.
- Vulnerable Population
- Participants are infants/toddlers (projected to be ≤ 36 months of age at dosing) and are classified as a vulnerable population. Consent must be provided by the participant’s parent(s) or legally authorised representative(s) (LARs). Assent documentation is provided for ages 3-5 years (documents: L1_Assent 3-5yr, L1_Assent 3-5yrs_EN). Subject information and informed consent forms (L1_SIS and ICF Main) are provided; patient-facing documents are available in English and French. The protocol requires parent(s) or LAR(s) to provide documentation of being current with recommended immunization schedule.
Inclusion criteria
- {"criterion_text":"- 1. Participant is projected to be ≤ 36 months of age at dosing\n- 2. Participant has molecular genetic report from a CAP-approved testing facility at screening that confirms a diagnosis of XLMTM and harbors a “pathogenic” or “likely pathogenic” variant in the MTM1 gene as classified using the ACMG standards and guidelines for interpretation of sequence variants\n- 3. Participant is ventilator-dependent and meets the following criteria: a. Required respiratory support at birth b.\tRequires ≥ 20 hours per day of invasive ventilator support (confirmed during screening) c.\tHas a tracheostomy tube\n- 4. Participant has no evidence of hepatic peliosis, increased echogenicity or any other clinically important abnormal finding on liver ultrasound as assessed by the investigator in consultation with the site hepatologist\n- 5.\tParticipant’s hepatobiliary laboratory measurements must meet the following criteria during screening and for the 2-month retrospective assessment of participant’s medical history: a. a.\tALT and AST < 3 × ULN b.\tDirect bilirubin ≤ 1 × ULN c.\tSerum total bile acids < 2 × ULN, independent of fasting status\n- 6. Participant’s parent(s) or LAR(s) must provide documentation of being current with recommended immunization schedule according to regional guidelines."}
Exclusion criteria
- {"criterion_text":"- 1. Participant born < 35 weeks gestation is still not term as per corrected age.\n- 10.\tParticipant tests positive for anti-MyoAAV3.8 TAb, as determined by central laboratory testing. a.\tNote: Since very young children may have passive antibodies transferred in utero from the mother, participants ≤ 6 months of age who initially test positive for anti- MyoAAV3.8 TAb may be rescreened for study eligibility.\n- 2. Participant is nutritionally unstable with weight less than fifth percentile for age or has a vitamin A, E or K deficiency.\n- 3. Participant requires supplemental oxygen on a routine or chronic basis. a.\tNote: The use of supplemental oxygen for acute, self-limited illnesses (for example, during hospitalization for pneumonia) shall not be exclusionary, provided the participant is neither acutely ill nor using supplemental oxygen at the time of screening.\n- 4. Participant currently has a clinically important respiratory infection or other clinically important active infection of any kind.\n- 5. Participant has an active viral or bacterial infection including, but not limited to, positive testing for: a.\tTB using the QuantiFERON-TB test b.\tActive HAV, HBV or HCV c.\tPrior HBV or HCV virus infection due to the risk of reactivation associated with immunosuppression d.\tHIV-1 and HIV-2 e.\tCOVID-19 f.\tCMV, viral loads ≥ 500 IU/mL or attributable symptoms or evidence of end-organ disease due to CMV.\n- 6. Participant has any history of cholestatic liver dysfunction and/or treatment for cholestasis. If the participant is taking prophylactic treatment for cholestasis (e.g., ursodiol, cholestyramine, rifampin or other therapies) which has not been prescribed for cholestatic liver dysfunction, treatment must be discontinued for at least 4 weeks prior to signing the ICF. a.\tNeonatal hyperbilirubinemia resolving within 4 weeks of birth in a full-term infant is not an exclusion.\n- 7. Participant has prior history of abnormal transaminases (ALT or AST) and/or abnormal bilirubin metabolism associated with ascites, jaundice (aside from neonatal hyperbilirubinemia) or gastrointestinal bleeding.\n- 8. Other than as required per protocol, participant has received or plans to receive systemic immunomodulating agents within 90 days before day 1 (use of inhaled corticosteroids to manage chronic respiratory conditions is allowed).\n- 9. Participant received any treatment for cholestasis (e.g., ursodiol, cholestyramine, rifampin or other therapies) prior to signing the ICF."}
